Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So how’s it going?

    The option is there in the latest version, but it’s on a different screen. You tap on your profile picture at the top left then the option to remove ads is there.

    However, it’s almost $40USD, which many are complaining about.

        Yeah, it’s a bit chicken and egg isn’t it. If they don’t get the funding they won’t be motivated to continue development. But without the development people won’t want to pay.

          Yeah I guess he has to make up for the much smaller user base of lemmy than reddit. I think the pricing might be localised already, seeing a lot of people listing different prices. It’s showing $37.99 for just remove ads for me, but $189.99 for lifetime Sync ultra, which is a bit much!!

            It will just be normal Google Pay price localisation. It’s been a while since I did app store stuff but if I recall correctly you pick a price level say level 20, and this has it as 25USD, 25Euro, 30 pounds, 35CAD, etc. It would automatically do a rough exchange rate to NZD plus GST and this happens automatically without the developer having to pick a price in all 200+ countries/regions.

            But yeah, the prices are high and it may just be cashing in on goodwill early on.
